A delightful addition to any date night, this savory potato gnocchi generously covered with creamy Rosa sauce and juicy tomatoes is so good, you’ll take time to enjoy every mouth-watering bite.

Directions

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a deep 12-inch nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Gently separate gnocchi and add to pan; stir gently to coat with oil. Cook, undisturbed, 4-6 min. or until bottoms are golden brown. Toss, cook an additional 2-3 min. or until browned on both sides. Transfer to baking sheet or large platter.

Heat remaining olive oil in same skillet on medium-high heat. Add tomatoes and garlic. Cook 2-3 min. or until tomatoes begin to shrivel and blister. Add both sauces and spinach to skillet; stir until spinach is wilted.

Tips

Ready-to-cook potato gnocchi is usually sold in the dry pasta aisle of the grocery store.
Calabrian chiles are Italian in origin, and the oil adds a unique, smoky, spicy kick to any dish. A good substitute would be a combination of extra virgin olive oil with ground hot Hungarian paprika or red pepper flakes to taste.
If mini fresh Mozzarella pearls are unavailable, cut large fresh mozzarella into ½-inch pieces.
